After sorting through a handful of images to select a submission to this month’s photo contest, I was in need of a quicker way to remove all EXIF and IPTC data from my images. Enter BatcPurifier LITE. From their website: BatchPurifier LITE™ is a free edition of BatchPurifier™ that can remove metadata from JPEG picture files in batch. BatchPurifier LITE™ is able to thoroughly remove JPEG metadata such as EXIF (including thumbnail & geotag), Photoshop image resources (including IPTC), XMP, comments, ICC Profile, and other hidden data types while keeping the JPEG image intact and without degrading its quality. I found it very easy to use and extremely fast in execution. Grab your copy here: http://www.digitalconfidence.com/downloads.html ...
